Astro Boy World reported this some time ago, I gave it a quick try and felt like sharing it.

http://www.kongregate.com/games/freegames1234/astroboy-ultimate-dodge (Takes awhile to load, and no you do not need to register to play.)

The apparent object of the game is that Astro is thrown into various stages with obstacles, which touching will result in an instant death. The goal is to get passed these stages untouched using various jumping and movement controls on the keyboard. Be warned though, the game is very hard.

From what I have played, it looks... alright. But that's about it. The game is said to be VERY hard, but I cannot even get passed the tutorial stage because I cannot even figure out how to perform the Diagonal Super Jump. <_< I'm trying to follow these vague controls and I can never get it right. Jeez, and I thought I was a better gamer than this. <_<

Edit: Actually, you can skip the tutorial stage with stage select, but it's probably better to not miss out on the control lessons.

Well to anyone who manages to get passed that part, enjoy it.

Sounds cool. I'll give it a try when I use my laptop. I think I have played a few games like that, but they weren't Astro Boy and they were pretty addicting and fun.

I couldn't beat any of the 40 levels lol, although I partially blame the fact that I had to skip the tutorial stage. Hearing the rest would have probably helped me a little.

The game is also quite glitchy at times, mostly with the menus and numbering.

But otherwise, the game is good for a few laughs but could easily become very frustrating. But I will say that this is one of the better Astro fan-games I've seen.

That game is terrible! It makes hard mode on the Omega Factor a walk in the park! o_o It's impossible to beat! I only beat like 2 levels and one was by pure luck of jumping like an idiot.

Seriously they need to make it more easy. @_@

I couldn't do diagonal jumps either. On keyboards there are certain combinations of keys you can't do, usually involving the arrow keys, so while I could do a jump to the left, jumping to the right doesn't work on my keyboard.
